Our new truck







This last Thursday, four of us from the fire department went to Atlanta to pick up our new truck. This truck serves as both a rescue first response truck and a brush truck. It holds 300 gallons of water. As you can see from the middle picture, it can spray water while we are driving it. We will keep all our first aid and medical equipment on this truck. The seats are designed to hold our air packs so that we can strap ourselves into them on the way to a scene if there is a structure fire.

thats awesome...a projectile vomiting truck!! Too bad it doesn't have spouts all the way around, then it could wash itself.
